Love You Dear Poem by Amitava Sur

She never said, uttered a word.
And she never did cry.
She only looked at me
With her wide open eyes.

Eagerly when I took her palm
To convey my love and to embrace,
It was so chilled like ice -
And she was silent and numb.

I only could read the tragic pains in them
In those dry patches of tears, down her cheeks,
They spoke about her parting pain-
Until time allowed them to drip.

Still she left a smile on her lips
As a reminiscent of her love for me,
Kept her fingers still stretched out
For holding me finally with love.

Love you dear, with an ever lasting love
Wherever your abode is.
